Lovely climb, long but definitely not steep. Nice to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Especially at the top, the road continues over the peaks for a while. Fantastic views.... read more

Lovely climb, long but definitely not steep. Nice to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Especially at the top, the road continues over the peaks for a while. Fantastic views.

Heerlijke klim, lang maar zeker niet stijl. Mooi om te genieten van de mooie omgeving. Vooral boven op de top loopt het weggetje nog even over de toppen door. Fantastisch uitzicht.

A very rolling pass at the start, with micro-passages of up to 100 metres with steeper gradients. This is a beautiful route that is not very busy in June and smells of lavender. Incredible views of the whole region from the top.

Col très roulant au début avec des micros passages de 100 mètres max avec des plus gros pourcentages. Route très belle peu fréquenté en juin et qui sent bon la lavande. Avec une vue incroyable sur toute la région au sommet

Longer slope but with very low gradients so it's not more interesting to climb

Versant plus long mais avec des pourcentages vraiment faibles donc il n'est pas plus intéressant à monter
